Jacoby Ellsbury went 2-for-3 with an RBI double, a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's win over the Red Sox.

Ellsbury walked and stole his 19th base of the season in the first inning, scoring on a Starlin Castro double. He then knocked in his 56th RBI with a double in the fifth inning. The 33-year-old owns a .262/.327/.374 line with nine homers and 70 runs scored in 145 games overall. Sep 29 - 11:06 PM

Jacoby Ellsbury (knee) is back in the Yankees' starting lineup on Wednesday night.

Ellsbury missed a handful of games after suffering a bone bruise in his right knee Saturday at Fenway Park. He's starting in center field and batting second Wednesday versus Rays right-hander Alex Cobb. Sep 21 - 3:46 PM

Jacoby Ellsbury (knee) said he expects to return to the Yankees' lineup on Wednesday.

Ellsbury suffered a bone bruise in his right knee on Saturday at Fenway Park, but an MRI taken Sunday back in New York showed no structural damage. He is sitting out again Tuesday, with Mason Williams playing center field, but this injury will not be a season-ender for the 33-year-old Ellsbury. Sep 20 - 4:06 PM

Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said Wednesday that Aaron Judge, Aaron Hicks, and Rob Refsnyder are currently the options to get at-bats in right field next season.

Obviously the Yankees would love for Judge to run away with the opportunity, but the 24-year-old batted just .179 with 42 strikeouts in 95 plate appearances during his first stint in the majors before being shut down with a right oblique strain in mid-September. This situation is subject to change, as there's a chance Brett Gardner could be a trade chip over the winter. The Yankees would surely love to deal Jacoby Ellsbury, but finding a taker (even if they cover a lot of the money involved) will be a big challenge.
